Missing lunch box? We found that too!

Within what seemed like minutes, our friends at GC/AAA FENCES INC. and parent volunteer Nick P had the wall and fencing up! Not only is there now a wall ball wall, but also extended fencing by the gaga ball pit! Students used to spend recess time chasing after gaga balls down the hill by the stream - but not anymore!

Thank you again to GC/AAA Fences who was an incredible partner in this project. To the City of Dover NH and the Dover NH School District/SAU 11 who provided the permits and permission to construct the wall and fence. To Michelle CP, Michelle W, and Nick P who led the fundraising, planning, and construction efforts. And to all of you for your donations and support!

Now.....LET'S PLAY BALL!
